Life in climate change A (Elämää ilmastonmuutoksessa A)

In the morning, in the morning, on the penetrating plywood, I am delighted to my small room. My home is not very large, but it is practical. It is a new house built as environmentally friendly and sustainable as this information has been able to do. As a breakfast, I eat rye bread and spread on it. Some of the supplies, such as herbs and shoots, have been able to grow themselves, although most of the time is dark in Finland. Fortunately, the lamps are able to simulate the light of the sun. Even at a younger age, I had a vegetarian focus, but I have now completely moved to a completely plant-based diet, like most other people. Electricity and heating in house companies come from renewable energy sources and recycling is a very important part of our daily life in our house company and throughout Helsinki.
When I go to work, Helsinki’s familiarity with cereals has already started and many people tweet on the streets. Most of the people travelling next to the noise source rather than traffic – all means of transport have become electrified and therefore do not emit much noise. I don’t even own the car, as the Helsinki-resident has no use. Ubiquitous through public transport or electric scooters, bicycles and other electrical equipment. I can easily get to work by tram. They have changed considerably from trams that I remember of my childhood – for example, tickets no longer pay anything. On the way, I look out out of the window to green parks. The green infrastructure has been increased much since my childhood and I think it makes the city more comfortable. The houses have green roofs, streets bordering trees. When I pick up from a tram, I can walking to my place of work via the park. There are a number of these in Helsinki to add ecological corridors for organisms living with us.
After the working day, I usually visit a walking walking or a natural park close to my home. I will then return home and prepare my own food. I will try to use the widest possible range of food in our food establishment. For example, I use a lot of beans and lentils, legumes, mushrooms, nuts and cereal products in food. From my smart watch, I can check with a single overview whether some minerals or vitamins need to be added to food. I see other important health data and connect with my home electronic devices. Most of my home furniture is electronic and can also be guided by speech, which I think is very convenient. This was sometimes very risky from the point of view of data protection, but fortunately it has now been resolved.
After a long day, I can see my friends. Together, we eat an excellent lettuce, exchange of views and discuss how much the world has changed. In the evening, after having got home to my small sofa, I will look for a period of one of my nil series.

One major change would be in the education system. Up to the sixth form, teaching would be as usual, except that a pupil would be assigned a personal teacher, specially trained for young children and young people, who would explain difficult subjects to them if necessary. From grade 6 onwards, each pupil, taking into account his future plans and personal interests, would draw up his own personal timetable, with optional subjects, and, if necessary, professional help and support in drawing it up. This would give him or her a better preparation for studying the desired profession. The fact that the student draws up his/her own timetable would give him/her more motivation to learn. Some classes or courses could be online, giving the possibility of a flexible timetable. Once a student reaches upper secondary level, he or she would have the choice between a regular programme of classes, with electives and a flexible timetable, or an intensive programme over one year. This would give the opportunity for inquisitive students, including those who go on to university, to enter the labour market earlier, for example medical students. Schools and classes would be equipped according to the specific needs of age groups. These are just some of the changes that would take place in the education system.

For me, social, communal values were always paramount. Material things were only there to provide the necessities of life. Healthy, simple food, preferably home-cooked, leads to a happy life. The food industry is taking the piss out of us just to secure its profits. It's not about people. All the advertising is falsified. Cooperation on a modest basis must be strengthened again. The focus must be more on people. Children must be taught this in their education.

Retour sur la logique des choses
I wake up one morning in the new year, 2040. Like any other morning, I'm getting ready for an ordinary day. Today, it's safe to walk the streets. Delinquency shaves the walls, since repression is harsh but fair, a little like in the Middle Ages, but effective (caning, reopening of prisons). Controlled immigration and the deportation of delinquents have contributed to all this. Men have realized that women can do as well as, if not better than, them. That said, parity and quotas are a thing of the past - we live in a world of meritocracy. Women are breathing a sigh of relief, and rapists and sex offenders are being severely punished. They have also understood that if they want to please, they have to accept being looked at, admired and approached by other people of all genders. In fact, there are now only 2, masculine or feminine. Non-binary people, those who feel like a flowerpot every 4 mornings..., are followed up for shrink failure. Society has become fairer, and freeloaders no longer exist. People who live on assistance without ever working are no longer entitled to it. All work deserves a salary, so no work = no income or benefits. Social security is on the mend, since we've stopped treating all the world's misery. Young people are better educated, thanks to ever more innovative new technologies, but above all thanks to a culture of effort and hard work. But above all, we've stopped doing anything that didn't make sense. For example, to import foreign products, they have to meet the same production standards. This encourages "local consumption", reduces carbon impact, and reinvigorates agriculture. Repair shops are to be found just about everywhere: no more systematic replacement, today we repair, just like in my youth. Containers are being reused, thanks to the return of the glass bottle deposit scheme. Tourism has taken a knock, which seems normal to me, but it came late. If you want to preserve places, you have to protect them from man. Apart from that, and it's not bad, I'm happy to have a quality of life like this, better purchasing power, better health, security, justice, well thought-out decisions but above all logic. So, although this future makes me dream, I'm not going to be impatient to get there because I'll be 15 years older :-/

I'd like to see world peace in 2040, where people can travel and emigrate freely. To achieve this, we need to put an end to dictatorships, the desire to conquer territories, power and material domination, and live in peaceful, intelligent communities.
